Corpus-Dissolvo House: The Surgeon’s Final Form

The moment the heavy, bronze-plated door to Corpus-Dissolvo House was carefully pushed open, the air rushed out—cold, dense, and heavy with the pervasive, unsettling odor of dry materials, mineral dust, and the sharp scent of heavy metals. The name, combining body/flesh with dissolve/break down, perfectly captured the manor’s function: a physical space dedicated to achieving the ultimate truth of biology, now embodying its own absolute termination of form. This abandoned Victorian house was structured not for ordinary living, but for unwavering, controlled vivisection, its internal layout a bewildering maze of small, isolated organ-analysis cells, soundproofed pathology rooms, and meticulously designed environmental stabilizers intended to eliminate all external variables that might corrupt a pure biological process.
The final inhabitant was Surgeon Master Vita Fissura, a brilliant, but intensely reclusive master anatomist and biological theorist of the late 19th century. Master Fissura’s profession was the study of health, disease, and the fundamental nature of integrated living structure, seeking to codify a single, unified, and perfectly consistent biological state that was free of all sickness, decay, or subjective function. His singular obsession, however, was the creation of the ‘Zero Form’—a single, perfect, flawless organismal state that would, through the absolute synthesis of all known physiological principles, reveal the ultimate, objective truth of life, free of all organs, complexity, or measurable metabolism. After realizing that the very act of existing required organization and constant energy exchange (the necessity of metabolism and structure), proving that absolute, independent and secure simplicity was impossible, shattering his faith in fixed biological law, he retreated to the manor. He dedicated his final years to resolving this single, terrifying goal, believing that the only way to achieve the Zero Form was to understand the ultimate absence of all structure. His personality was intensely systematic, fearful of inconsistency, and utterly consumed by the pursuit of biological finality.

The Organ Chamber

Master Fissura’s mania culminated in the Organ Chamber. This secure, sealed room was where he spent his final days, not operating, but deconstructing the act of being alive itself, attempting to define the ultimate objectivity by isolating the point that offered no detectable biological structure. His journals, written in a cramped, precise hand that eventually gave way to complex equations concerning non-cellular processes and the theoretical limits of absolute entropy, were found sealed inside a hollow metal scalpel handle. He stopped trying to define the perfect life and began trying to define the un-formed, concluding that the only way to achieve the Zero Form was to eliminate the need for any internal organization whatsoever. “The structure is a failure; the function is a weakness,” one entry read. “The final form requires the complete surrender of all complexity and all organization. The truth must be a single, self-evident, unstated conclusion, contained in a fundamental, perfect void.”
The house preserves his systematic rigor structurally. Many internal passages are fitted with small, precisely calibrated chemical fume extractors and absolute temperature regulators built into the walls, now all rusted and frozen, remnants of his attempts to create a universal, absolutely fixed and non-reactive environment for abstract biological contemplation.

The Final Operation in the Abandoned Victorian House

Surgeon Master Vita Fissura was last heard working in his laboratory, followed by a sudden, intense sound of heavy bone cracking and metal snapping (from the skeleton and the surgical tools) and then immediate, profound silence. He did not leave the manor. The next morning, the laboratory was cold, the Organ Chamber sealed, and the man was gone. No body was found, and the only evidence was the singular, physical alteration to his final philosophical work.
The ultimate chilling clue is the small hole in the black rubber. It is the final operation—the Zero Form achieved, representing the cessation of all biological existence and the perfect, objective truth found in a single, un-dimensioned point of pure, absolute nothingness. The broken retractor and blank rubber ensure no further attempt could be made to chart the flawed, structured world. This abandoned Victorian House, with its silent chambers and broken tools, stands as a cold, imposing testament to the master surgeon who pursued the ultimate, pure form of life, and who, in the end, may have successfully defined the Perfect Non-Structure, vanishing into the un-formed, objective finality that he engineered as his final, terrifying statement of pure existence.
